Just today I found out that last week one of my best friends was carjacked, held at knifepoint, robbed and than raped. This is a friend that moved and I have lost touch with in the last little while...
The thing is I want to call her & talk to her, but that would be so awkward seeing as what happened.... I am so pissed !!! who the hell would do something like this? I don't know how to feel or what to say and do, I just feel so upset.

I am so sorry hon.. I could image you are feeling mad and confused.. I think she'd rather know you care (since you obviously do) than to leave it alone.. but you know her better than I do so maybe some space (a few days) would be better?

Maybe you could write her a letter? That way she would know that you cared, but it would still leave her some personal space since dealing with something like this is traumatic and takes a few weeks to sort of even begin to be able to recover from. Just an idea....
